Sepia Pants & Shorts Pattern

The Sepia Pants + Shorts have a clever design that blends style and comfort. Functional double pockets in the front are sewn to create a floating effect, with additional topstitched pockets in the back. A traditional elastic waistband is elevated with a fluted paperbag edge and optional drawstring.

• View A features barrel leg pants ending at the ankle, shaped with darts at the knee and hem.
• View B features wide leg, full-length pants.
• View C features shorts ending at mid-thigh.
